One of many children’s favorite toy is now available online! Although it’s not exactly like the original, you can still create some very cool animations with this kaleidoscope. Just click on a square in the menu to the left to choose what shape you want, and then move your cursor across the window to manipulate the shape in different ways. Dragging your cursor to the upper left corner will make the shape smaller, dragging it to the upper right corner will make it wider, dragging it to the lower left corner will make it longer, and dragging it to the lower right corner will make it bigger.

Hapland is a puzzle/maze game where the objective is to light both of the torches which opens up the big portal. You do this by clicking on things, like arrows and grenade launchers, and you have to do it in the right order too. Often there are small inscriptions on the walls which will give you a clue about what should be done. Sometimes there’s more than one way to solve a problem. When you’ve finished Hapland, you can move on to Hapland 2 and Hapland 3.

N-Ball

From the site:

“N-Ball is a crazy physics-based 2D platform. In this game you control N-Ball, a kind of ever burning plasma ball, through 40 levels full of platforms, ropes, swings, vehicles and lots of other weird structures. And with the editor you can also create your own levels or play those made by your friends! A bit tricky at first but lots of fun once you get the hang of it!”

This is another one of those physics games which you really get addicted to after only a few minutes of playing. You play as a ball, using the arrow keys to move around, and the space key to jump. You need to be in contact with something in order to be able to jump, so sometimes it’s best to just hold in space. You cannot jump on lines and balls that are red, you will lose a life instantly, sometimes you even need to use “vehicles” in order to pass over the lines. The object is to try to get to the goal by using some very tricky jumping, and a lot of timing. After you’ve played it for a while, you can download the editor and make a few levels yourself.

The Quest For The Rest is a puzzle/labyrinth type of game. The quest is to bring the three lost members back to their home, by clicking on various objects in the nature in order to clear the way. Unfortunately, this game is rather short, it only has three levels at the moment, and they aren’t very hard. But it has nice graphics, and it requires a little more thinking than just a normal game.
